Temple ov Ahriman CD release show!!!

Prepare your neck and your soul, because Temple ov Ahriman is finally unleashing their debut full-length album, Heretics of Consensual Reality, with a crushing CD release show on Friday, June 26th, 2026!

This Austin-based one-man Black Metal project is transforming into a full live assault for the night, returning to the stage for the first time in two years. If you’ve been waiting to hear the new material in the flesh (and at full volume), this is the moment.

The night is stacked front to back with extreme metal from Texas heavy-hitters:

• Varenth – 9:00 pm
  Atmospheric yet punishing, Varenth kicks off the evening by plunging you straight into darkness. Expect eerie melodies, blasts, and enough mood to pull you into the abyss before you’ve even finished your first drink.
• Spear Siege – 10:00 pm
  Razor-edged riffs and relentless energy. Spear Siege brings a warlike intensity that bridges classic extreme metal influences with modern ferocity. This is the set where the pit starts to wake up.
• Fluxus Mortis – 11:00 pm
  Hailing from San Antonio, Fluxus Mortis delivers a grim, suffocating barrage of blackened death. Cavernous vocals, crushing guitars, and an ominous atmosphere set the stage perfectly for the headliner.
• Temple ov Ahriman – 12:00 am
  The reason we’re all here. Temple ov Ahriman takes the stage at midnight to baptize the crowd in the sounds of Heretics of Consensual Reality. Expect frostbitten riffs, ritualistic vibes, and the kind of cold, occult atmosphere that defines true underground Black Metal.

Details for the night:

• Date: Friday, June 26th, 2026

• Texas extreme metal showcase: With Varenth, Spear Siege, and San Antonio’s Fluxus Mortis on the bill, this night is a concentrated blast of local and regional underground talent.
• True underground atmosphere: No frills, no gloss—just raw, heavy, occult-tinged metal in an intimate venue, surrounded by people who actually live for this stuff.

Whether you’re a longtime supporter of the Texas extreme metal scene or just craving a night of unfiltered Black and death metal, Temple ov Ahriman’s CD release show is the kind of event you talk about for years afterward. Grab some cash for the door, bring a friend who can handle blast beats at midnight, and step willingly into the heretical void.
